What makes this the Best Baby Gift, Made in USA Just because you don’t eat your clothing doesn’t mean organic isn’t important. Not only will this unbleached, 100% organic the most natural thing you can place next to your baby’s skin, but the planet stays healthier from the way the cotton was grown. The cotton plant requires some of the most intense pesticide and fertilizer regimes of any plant. Although only about three percent of the world’s arable land is used for cotton, it uses about a quarter of the world’s pesticides and fertilizers. That’s about one-third of a pound per cotton shirt. Every time you buy some of these beautiful organic cotton baby clothes, you are not only saving those chemicals from leaching into our groundwater, but are supporting sustainable agricultural practices. |
